Re: Six years out and "Trigger thumb" back???

Tricia,

My onc described these episodes that came out of nowhere periodcally on AI's "flares," and said to take a one month holiday from it, to see if it would resolve. (I would do fine for around 10 months at a time, then the pain would return with a vengance.) I wound up having some of both Arimidex and Femara around all the time, as my rx plan made me buy 90 days at a time, and would just immediately switch to the other from whichever I was on at the time. That usually helped.

After I posted this, I had a new thought: Arimidex now comes in a generic version. Have you recently switched from brand label to generic? If so, that may be the cause - even though they say generics are the same, they are never 100% the same as the branded drug.
